  <mainDescription>&lt;p>&#xD;
    &lt;strong>Test Ideas List&lt;/strong> - A list of brief statements identifying tests that are potentially useful to conduct.&#xD;
&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;p>&#xD;
    &lt;strong>Test Ideas Catalog&lt;/strong> - A catalog of common faults and mistakes done when developing software.&#xD;
&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;ul>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Test Ideas will describe any of the elements of an executable test.&amp;nbsp;&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Test ideas ensure the important ideas are not forgotten and are detailed later in test cases.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Test Ideas are to be captured at a less-specific level in an intermediate form.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Test ideas are more reviewable and understandable then complete tests.&amp;nbsp; Making the reasoning behind the test&#xD;
        idea clearer.&amp;nbsp;&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Test ideas support more powerful test, by not constraining the tester.&amp;nbsp; Making it easier to create tests that&#xD;
        validate more then just the defined requirements.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Test Ideas are often based on explicit and implicit fault modules, to include but not limited to Booleans,&#xD;
        boundaries and method calls.&amp;nbsp; Test Ideas Lists will contain test ideas from many faults models derived for one&#xD;
        or many work products.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
&lt;/ul>&#xD;
&lt;p>&#xD;
    Creating test ideas before testing for review and inspection of design work products assists in discovering design or&#xD;
    analysis errors.&#xD;
